WHO IS SULPICIA?

Sulpicia is one of the few surviving female poets from ancient Rome, providing a rare glimpse into the thoughts and emotions of a woman in a male-dominated society. This makes her work especially significant, as it highlights the importance of including women in the study of antiquity. By focusing on voices like hers, we can uncover the diverse experiences and perspectives that are often overlooked in history. Hearing women's stories in their own words allows us to better understand their struggles, aspirations, and contributions to society. As a teenage girl, Sulpicia's voice resonates deeply with me; it serves as a powerful reminder that even in ancient times, women were determined to express themselves, challenge societal norms, and carve out their own identities. Her poetry inspires me to explore my own voice and the stories of women throughout history.
